Miss My Sis in Michigan Dear Michigan: Agatha sounds as if she is not only irresponsible but unreasonable Chances are had you loaned her your credit card eventually you would have been stuck with her charges and then the relationship would have blown up anyway If your sister has ignored you for over a year because of this incident she is a "user" But do km) the lines of communication open in case she wants to reconnect Make it easy for her -- 0 |
